“As rich in detail and insight as it is in imagery and
iconography, Beatlemania: Four Photographers on the Fab Four, is
simply a must-have for any dedicated maniac.” - Far Out magazine
The Beatles ascended like no band before, hurtling to the dizzy
heights of international stardom in the early 1960s. Their
counter-cultural vibes and unmistakable talent are still the
subject of much discussion today - as is the rabid devotion of
their fans. But how did one pop group become, as Lennon infamously
quipped, "more popular than Jesus"? The work of four photographers
provides an enlightening insight into the band's rise to fame. Ward
captured the Fab Four when Beatlemania was still confined to their
own home city - the band braved the icy Liverpool streets for a
promotional shoot during the Big Freeze of '62-63. O'Neill crossed
paths with The Beatles amid the buzz of the Swinging Sixties,
resonating with the band in 1963 as a photographer of their
generation. Parkinson delivered a deceptively relaxed shoot later
that year, when the band were recording their second album; while
Bayes captured never-before-published candid shots of The Beatles
filming Help! in 1965. Accompanying these pictures, Tony Barrell's
text delves into the Beatlemania phenomenon - the good, the bad,
the ugly and the odd. From the creation of their early hit records
to the hails of confectionery that peppered stages after John
claimed George had eaten his jelly babies, Beatlemania: Four
Photographers on the Fab Four reveals how one band became a lasting
sensation.
